How often do you do it?

jenni7202 @jenni7202 (1598) • United States 8 Apr 08

Rating other members, do you even do it? I tend to rate the member that starts a discussion that I'm responding to. I also rate everyone who responds to my own discussions. I personally give out mostly positives. I don't give...

plainhousewife Just like you do, I also rate everyone who responds to my discussions and when I come across an interesting response by someone in another discussion. I have never given a negative rate (so far). I don't think everyone is aware of ratings here. I think most...

Do you prefer digital or analog watches?

lordwarwizard @lordwarwizard (35747) • Singapore 1 Apr 08

I think most of us have watches. Assuming you have not relegated the role of timekeeper to your mobile phone, you would likely be wearing a watch when you are out of the house. What is your favorite type of watch? A digital one...

plainhousewife I prefer using a digital watch. This is probably because there have been several times that I'd wake up, look at my watch and go back to sleep only to realize an hour later that I misread my watch and I end up being late. :D At least with a digital...

which do you like better?

ruzzychai0330 @ruzzychai0330 (322) • Philippines 28 Feb 08

McDonalds or Jollibee? I love the Jollispag of Jollibee but I like the McDo Meals of Mcdonals of course. How about you? Which do you think is better?

19 responses

plainhousewife I like Jolllibee's french fries better than McDo's... it's just much crispier. In terms of which of the two I like better, I like McDo better. I guess I was more of a McDo kid than a Jollibee one. :)

plainhousewife It depends. I prefer to go for salad if I wasn't really that hungry yet. If I was, I'd go for the soup instead as it would be more filling for me. What salad? Ceasar salad! If soup, I'd go for any soup as long as it's those thick creamy ones.

plainhousewife Yes, I love to go shopping for other things than groceries. Buying groceries is more of a chore to me and something that has to be done. When I go shopping for other things like things for the house, my kids, my husband or myself, that's what I enjoy more. I...

plainhousewife Believe it or not, I like dipping my fries into vanilla ice cream! It just tastes so good... to me, I guess. :) If there's no vanilla ice-cream, ketchup with a little salt mixed into it will do. Yum!

Cooking With Spam?

Deborah L. Alten @gtargirl (5376) • United States 28 Mar 08

So does anyone like Spam? Why does it have such a bad reputation? My son loves Spam burgers, topped off with a sunny side fried egg, lettuce, tomato all on a toasted Sesame bun. Well, it's not as greasy as a hamburger and like I...

plainhousewife I've never been comfortable sleeping naked. I usually sleep with a shirt and pajama on, but naked? No. I keep thinking that i wouldn't want to be caught naked if some kind of emergency happens and I have to run out of the house at once. :D

Do you use public toilet?..are you not scared using it? Is it safe or unsafe? There are some afraid to use toilet in public area. They don't have an assurance of safety to used it. Well, me doubt of it but sometimes i can't...

plainhousewife Whenever I have to use the public toilet, I don't really sit on it. I'm afraid I'd catch some nasty germs from the seat alone. As much as possible, I try to use those "pay toilets". At least, they're cleaner because they get cleaned more often and less people...

Would you get romantically involved with someone 30 years younger (or older)?

jewelenterprises @jewelenterprises (1996) • Australia 25 Mar 08

plainhousewife I would probably have to go with getting involved with someone 30 years older. Being a woman, I think it's more acceptable in our society when the man is older than the woman... not just older, but we're talking about 30 years here. I don't think I can get...
